The main problem I had with uw-imap was that it didn't want to display
folders correctly in squirrelmail.  I posted a while back about the
problem and despite repeated attempts never managed to figure out what was
going on with the system.  I might take another look at it though.  At
least I'm not the only one who thinks cyrus installation and documentaion
is a basic mess.  And the amount of e-mail I deal with is very VERY low,
perhaps 100 messages a day total.

My specific problem with responses in regards to squirrelmail and UW-IMAP
can be found at
http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?thread_id=1616022&forum_id=2995

Basically it was the way squirrelmail interfaced with the folders and the
entire folder listing.  If you've got any solution to this, I would gladly
go back to uw-imap as the inbox problem is a royal pain in the keister.
